He represented the England Academy rugby league side where he scored two tries in the record-breaking win over Australia. [edit] Bradford BullsCook signed from Saracens RFC in late 2003. In 2005, Cook made several appearances off the bench and was expected to cement a first team spot in 2006. In 2006 Cook started off well and even got the Man of the Match award for his display in the home game against Hull FC in the Challenge Cup. Unfortunately this was his last appearance for over 3 months due to a shoulder injury and Cook didn't make his comeback until the back end of the season were he finished the year with a flourish of games. In 2007 Cook established a regular bench spot and made his first starting game against Leed Rhinos in the very controversial Millenium Magic match. Unfortunately Cook was ruled out for another 3 months due to an injury to his wrist, but like the year before he managed to come back to finish the season with another string of games off the bench.
